Overview
Our Dragon Blood Zi Juan purple tea is sourced from a varietal of tea that naturally has higher levels of anthocyanin, which gives this tea a purple colour. This tea has been yet again restocked in 2019. Since its initial release in 2015, it has changed quite a bit – but for the better. It’s much less astringent at this point and has smoothed out significantly. There is also more noticeable fruitiness in the flavour and a natural smokiness, which provides a welcomed contrast. Even we didn’t expect this tea to develop as well as it has, but we’re extremely happy with the results so far. While various health claims are comonly attached to purple tea, we can’t make any verifiable claims about whether or not this tea can or can’t give you superpowers, so it’s best to just try for yourself. $0.24/gram
